ENVISION MONITORS� 17-inch EN-7500 LCD SCORES BIG ON CNET REVIEW

17-inch LCD with TV Tuner Hits All The Marks

San Francisco, Calif. - October 27, 2002 - CNET recently reviewed Envision Monitors� new EN-7500, a 17-inch LCD with built-in TV tuner, garnering the company an outstanding review of the new product.

According to the review, the monitor is so versatile the user can �think of the Envision EN-7500 as a kind of Swiss-Army-knife monitor � and it�s the perfect option for anyone who likes to compute and watch TV at the same time.� With an affordable price tag of $599, the two-in-one monitor is �among the least expensive 17-inch LCDs/TVs we�ve reviewed.�

The EN-7500 was rigorously tested as a computer monitor against competing monitors, and �the Envision EN-7500 holds its own against the similarly priced ViewSonic VE700 and even the more expensive Samsung SyncMaster 171P and Nec MultiSync LCD1880SX displays. In fact, the EN-7500�s fast 20ms pixel-response rate beats ViewSonic�s 35ms, NEC�s 33ms, and Samsung�s 25ms pixel response rates hands down,� lauds the review.

�With its new price tag, the multifunctional EN-7500 qualifies as an unusually good bargain. It�s well suited for a bedroom or a college dormitory where there may not be room for both a computer and a TV. And for sports junkies, it�s an ideal way to follow late-breaking events while working at a monitor,� states the review.

�We at Envision are proud that the multi-functionality of the new EN-7500 can provide consumers with a broader range of multimedia usability in the PC platform, especially at its very affordable price,� enthuses Tak Shimizu, vice president of sales and marketing for Envision.

The Envision EN-7500 is available at CompUSA, Staples.com, Costco, Microwarehouse, FRY�s, BJ�s and Amazon.com, and is street-priced at $599.
